The Marriage of the Sun and the Moon symbolizes the sacred union of opposites—masculine and feminine, spirit and matter, or sulfur and mercury. Known in alchemy as the conjunctio, this union represents a key moment in the transformative process, where dualities merge into a new, harmonious whole. It often precedes the creation of the Philosopher’s Stone, the legendary perfected substance or state of enlightenment.
Traditionally depicted as a royal wedding between Sol (the Sun, king) and Luna (the Moon, queen), this image evokes the reconciliation of opposing forces to bring about balance, transformation, and inner or material perfection.
Each bookmark is a one-of-a-kind piece, featuring hand-drawn artwork in black India ink on flax linen. Sewn with care on my vintage Singer sewing machine, it clasps gently between the pages of any book, holding your place securely without leaving an indentation. Natural variations and subtle imperfections are part of its handcrafted character, making each piece unique.
Perfect for those drawn to alchemical symbolism, inner work, or ritual reading.
